Second-Quarter 2012 Business Highlights
In the second quarter of 2012, NCR continued the introduction and deployment of its self-service solutions across its core and emerging industries while continuing to expand its global services business. The following are NCR's second quarter business highlights.
In the Financial Services segment, NCR announced that Central Bank, which services Provo, Utah and the surrounding communities, will deploy 10 NCR SelfServTM ATMs to revamp its ATM network. The new ATMs include NCR's Scalable Deposit Module (SDM) technology, and replace older machines including some from a competing manufacturer. The NCR SelfServTM ATMs that Central Bank will deploy are designed to meet customer demands for fast, convenient service, with the SDM technology enabling consumers to make a deposit twice as fast when compared to a similar transaction at a regular ATM.
Transoft International, the leading provider of currency supply chain management solutions in cooperation with its global partner, NCR, announced that Turkish Economy Bank (TEB) chose Transoft's OptiCash currency management software for its ATM cash optimization. OptiCash is a comprehensive end-to-end currency management software solution that will be used to automate cash forecasting, cost balancing ordering, monitoring, expense tracking and other key functional areas.
NCR also recently introduced NCR Mobile Cash Withdrawal - a new software solution that allows consumers to initiate cash withdrawals from their banking accounts via a mobile device and complete those transactions at an ATM by scanning a 2D barcode. This technology can make ATM transactions faster and more secure by removing cards and PINs from the ATM usage process. In addition to this new technology, NCR has launched an expanded suite of digital signage, kiosk, and managed services tailored to address important needs of community banks and credit unions. The expanded product offering will provide institutions with the opportunity to increase their affinity with consumers by improving the security and availability of their self-service network and to use digital merchandising technologies in their branches to actively promote products and services.
In Retail Solutions, NCR launched NCR Silver this week, a simple and affordable cloud-based point-of-sale (POS) software platform that enables small business owners and entrepreneurs to take payments and manage their entire business with one POS solution. NCR Silver will address long-standing technology disadvantages faced by small businesses to allow them to better run their sales platform, connect with consumers and sell anywhere.
In Hospitality, NCR recently announced the completion of a series of strategic acquisitions in Brazil. The acquisitions should enable NCR to increase and strengthen its overall presence in Brazil where restaurant spending in forecasted to increase by a 9-10% annual growth rate according to Euromonitor. NCR acquired POS Integrated Solutions, a reseller of the NCR Aloha solution for restaurants and Wyse Sistemas de Informatica Ltda., a market leading provider of software solutions including the Colibri suite of hospitality software. NCR also acquired Radiant Distribution Solutions (RDS), an NCR Hospitality hardware distribution partner.
NCR entered into a new agreement with Carlson Restaurants to implement the NCR inventory and labor management solution in all of Carlson's domestic T.G.I. Friday's restaurants. The solution enables multiple back office maintenance efficiencies which should allow restaurant management to spend more time focusing on the service experience for guests. The solution is also designed to help reduce operational and food costs which should unlock capital for use in marketing initiatives and drive growth of the T.G.I. Friday's brand.
NCR also entered into an agreement with Krispy Kreme to implement the NCR Aloha restaurant technology solution in all of Krispy Kreme's U.S.-based corporate-owned sites and to make the solution available to Krispy Kreme franchisees. The solution should enable Krispy Kreme to manage mission critical daily operations at the local level and to leverage the power and freedom of having transactional data, systems configuration and management hosted in the cloud.
In addition, NCR recently launched NCR Customer Voice, a web-based customer loyalty, retention and referral tool that provides restaurant operators with an easy way to survey customers and automate the process for receiving customer feedback. The solution is also designed to provide a powerful low-cost, high-value marketing channel for restaurant operators through its integration with major social media channels including Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter.
In Emerging Industries, NCR continued to advance its self-service technologies across its key verticals. In Travel, NCR recently showcased a number of products and services that offer a better and faster consumer service in the terminal and gate areas of airports. NCR Mobile Pass is a solution that converts a smartphone into a boarding pass and serves as an expansion of NCR's Mobile Suite, enabling passengers to manage their flight from booking and reservation, to check-in and boarding at the gate. Another product from NCR Travel, NCR Netkey Wayfinding, helps improve orientation in airports and helps passengers find gates, flight information, shops and special offers.
In the Telecom & Technology vertical, NCR achieved two new next-generation data center certifications from Cisco Systems in North America, in Unified Computing Technology and Advanced Data Center Architecture specializations. These designations recognize NCR as having fulfilled the training and program prerequisites to sell, deploy and support the Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS and Cisco Data Center Solutions and position NCR to assist customers in their next-generation data center transformations including data center fabric, virtualization and cloud computing.

The agreement builds on NCR's existing Aruba ServiceEdge partner status, through which NCR provides Aruba deployment services, delivering a full range of wireless networking services to Aruba channel partners, ranging from planning and design to site surveys, installation, and moves, adds and changes.
In addition, NCR and Bank of New Zealand jointly won the highly coveted "Best ATM Installation and Management Project at the Asian Banker 2012 Technology Implementation Awards."
